Are you looking for a new way to spice up your daily tea routine? Then let me introduce you to the Earl Grey latte, a deliciously unique way to enjoy your favorite tea!
Earl Grey latte is made by infusing Earl Grey tea leaves in hot milk and adding a touch of sweetness. It’s creamy, and smooth, and has a distinct floral and citrusy aroma from the bergamot oil in the tea leaves.
To make this delicious latte, you’ll need some Earl Grey tea leaves, milk, sugar, and vanilla extract. Begin by brewing a strong cup of Earl Grey tea in boiling water for 5 minutes. While the tea is brewing, heat up some milk in a saucepan on low heat. Once the milk is heated, remove it from the heat and add sugar or honey, stirring until they dissolve. Don’t worry, there is a recipe below.
One of the best things about this latte is that it’s a healthier alternative to your regular latte since it’s made with tea instead of coffee. Plus, Earl Grey tea is loaded with antioxidants and has many health benefits, including improved digestion, stress relief, and improved heart health.
Now, if you’re a calorie counter, a cup of Earl Grey latte made with whole milk and sugar is approximately 70 calories. But if you want to reduce the calorie count, you can use skim milk or a milk alternative and natural sweeteners like honey or stevia instead of sugar.
Earl Grey latte is an excellent way to enjoy your Earl Grey tea, especially on a chilly day. It’s warm, creamy, and has a unique flavor that is sure to please your taste buds. So why not try making one at home and impress your friends and family with your barista skills?
